    Uh, dude, you're doing it wrong.

    Just donate ~$5 to slashdot, then you get a ~15-minute preview of new posts and the time they are set to go "live".

    If you don't use it to turn off banner ads, it apparently never expires. At least mine hasn't for the past 10 years...

    That's more likely than you might think. It's even happened in then past when a bunch of 4chan users decided to copy, paste and execute some code they found posted on /b/. If they had known how to read said code, they would have realised that they were running a spambot, which served to post the code all over 4chan, while simultaneously DDoSing the site. What was funniest was listening to all of the /b/tards vow revenge against the perpetrators of such a heinous crime.

    Negative, the woman "cut through" onto his property and saw he was naked inside of his own home. It makes as much sense as the guy who fell through the skylight while he was robbing someone and fell onto the knives upside down on the knife block, sued, and won. I couldn't find a similar story that I believe is different but one woman actually trespassed onto the guys property peeking into his window and had to stand on her tippy toes or get right up to the window to see him, and he was arrested as well. How can someone committing a crime cause someone else to commit a crime? Even if it could, it should be null and the original crime should take precedence and be the focus, for if it had not happened then there wouldn't have been a second.. right?

    Lulz, not "LOL's." They do it for the lulz.

    What makes you think Scientology is weak and fang-less? They kill people. They broke into a federal agency and stole documents without repercussion. They blackmailed the IRS into granting them a tax exemption.
